Jovan Milošević (VfB Stuttgart) set to join
By OnzeActu · · 5 min read
Jovan Milošević, VfB Stuttgart striker, is getting closer to a permanent transfer to Sporting Braga for an amount of around 8 million euros. Despite successive loan spells, the 21-year-old was able to bounce back, notably at Partizan and Werder Bremen. This move represents a turning point in the career of the young Serbian international.
Why it matters
Jovan Milošević's transfer to Sporting Braga could mark a turning point in his career, allowing him to flourish in La Liga Portugal after difficult spells in the Bundesliga. At just 21 years old, he has already shown his potential by scoring 19 goals for Partizan, underlining his talent and ability to perform at a high level. This move could also benefit Stuttgart, which would make a significant profit on its initial investment.
Context
Vojvodina-trained Jovan Milošević was signed by VfB Stuttgart in 2023. Despite high expectations, he failed to establish himself in the Bundesliga, often being loaned out to other clubs. His successful move to Partizan revived his career, which led to interest from Sporting Braga.

Trained in Vojvodina and recruited by VfB Stuttgart in 2023 for around 1.2 million euros, Milošević will never have had the opportunity to establish himself sustainably under the Swabian colors. Restricted to a secondary role in the Bundesliga and regularly loaned out, he relaunched himself in his native country during his successful stint at Partizan Belgrade, where he scored 19 goals in 30 matches in all competitions. Despite its initial wish to stay in Serbia, the German club had not given up banking on its potential and extended it until 2029 before loaning it to Werder Bremen in January.

In the Bundesliga, it was during this short experience with Bremen that Milošević was able to use his patience and seize his chance, finishing the season with three goals in 13 appearances, and actively participating in the maintenance of Werder. A return to the forefront which, however, was not enough to convince Stuttgart to offer him a starting place next season.
This transfer, if confirmed, will allow VfB Stuttgart to achieve significant added value on a player who has only made an occasional mark in the Bundesliga but who has proven himself elsewhere. Sporting Braga, regularly qualified for the European Cup, relies heavily on the qualities and room for improvement of the Serbian striker. For Milošević, it will be a new challenge on the European scene, after having gained numerous experiences in Germany, Switzerland (St. Gallen), and Serbia.
It remains to be seen whether Udinese will manage to reverse the trend in this matter before the official signing, but everything suggests that Braga would hold the rope to welcome the promising Serbian center forward.
The rest
If the deal between Stuttgart and Braga is finalized, Milošević is expected to sign a five-year contract with the Portuguese club. The move could also prompt other Bundesliga clubs to keep a close eye on young Serbian talents, particularly those who have proven themselves at clubs like Partizan. Meanwhile, Udinese may try to make one last offer to lure the player before he commits permanently to Braga.
